Sha’Carri Richardson terminated her contract due to

American sprint queen Sha’Carri Richardson was no fluke as she beat a strong field, including reigning Olympic champion Julien Alfred, to claim the win in the women’s 100m at the Diamond League Meeting in Zurich.

Sha’Carri Richardson has finally earned her sweet revenge over Julien Alfred with a dominant victory at the Diamond League Meeting in Zurich.

Richardson clocked 10.84 seconds to cross the finish line ahead of the reigning Olympic champion who was forced to finish second in a time of 10.88 seconds. Alfred’s teammate, Dina Asher-Smith, coming off a win at the Diamond League Meeting in Lausanne, was forced to complete the podium in a time of 10.89 seconds.

After her Paris Olympics setback, Richardson went back to basics and her training has paid off well with her smart race to triumph over her latest rival.

Julien Alfred does not feel any sense of pressure as she gears up for a gruelling task against her teammates Dina Asher-Smith, Sha’Carri Richardson and other formidable 100m runners at the Diamond League Meeting in Zurich on September 5.

Alfred will be lining up for the first time after her Paris Olympics exploits that saw her claim the Olympic 100m title and the 200m silver medal. All eyes will be on the St. Lucien athlete following her recent striking form.

However, she faces a strong cast of women who will be out to seek revenge with some hoping to achieve a podium finish. However, she remains unfazed by the presence of the strong women and insists that she will be out to enjoy herself and see what she can do.

American sprint legend Justin Gatlin has explained the reason behind Dina Asher-Smith’s poor show at the Paris Olympics and what makes her a special sprinter despite that.

Speaking on his Ready Set Go podcast, the 2004 Olympic 100m champion noted that Asher-Smith changing coaches and moving to a new environment is the main reason behind her slow season and how she has managed to bounce back to winning ways.

At the Paris Olympics, the Briton failed to reach the final of the women’s 100m and finished fourth in the women’s 200m final. She claimed a silver medal in the women’s 4x100m relay as Team USA took the crown.
